Is there a tooth for teeth whitening as is Classic?  This is/was perhaps my favorite quick photo enhancement.

While there's no teeth whitening preset in the brush in the cloud-based Lightroom CC app, you can whiten teeth in LIghtroom CC just as you would in Classic - use the brush, set to positive exposure and negative saturation. Be careful not to go too negative on the saturation, or the teeth will turn grey.

The Classic preset uses Exposure = + .40 and Saturation = -36, so use those as a starting point.

WHY WHY WHY would you remove the easy to use teeth whitener.  I encouage you to put it back,  My bet this is one of the most used feature of LR.   Please return it.

Teeth whitening has never been removed from Lightroom Classic. 

Teeth whitening was recently put into Lightroom Desktop for the first time. Hence, it was never removed either.

 

Which Lightroom Application are you using?

 

Please go to Help>System Info… and provide us the exact installed version number of your software.

It used to be where you find the clone/heal brush, but now the editing feature we used to select to use teeth whitening, among other presets, isn't in the same place. Here's my version info:

 

Lightroom Classic version: 11.5 [ 202208080927-8a575c91 ]

Has this feature come out yet? I don't see it on the iPad Pro. I like to make custom effects to speed up my newborn photography post editing.

Hi faythew71916893,

Teeth whitening effect in Lightroom CC is not available yet. Lightroom CC is a brand new application and we are still evolving it with features and fixes based on our valuable customer's feedback like you. We'd love to get this request and feedback submitted officially as a feature request so the engineering team can get this recorded. Could you please post this feedback here Lightroom Classic CC | Photoshop Family Customer Community

However, Lightroom Classic CC does have this effect, please refer How to apply local adjustments to photos in Photoshop Lightroom Classic CC

Thanks,

Akash
